I upgraded from a 39mm to a 46mm wastegate
#1
This morning i swapped from a 39mm precision 2 bolt wg to a 46mm precision v band wg. As you can see I used a quick 2 bolt to v band flange to see how it would react compared to the smaller gate. It flows like a **** and I'm glad I upgraded. It works nice so far but only got a little pull in from 30-70 and it stayed at 11 psi using the 9 psi spring. The real test wl be a 0-120 pull. Also tossed some new rotors and pads on the front.
Thanks for Trick Performance for the wastage and flange.

That precision 46 gate is a nice upgrade! I too had boost creep after upgrading to a bigger efficient turbo and using a tial 38 2 bolt gate/trick hot pipes.
I ended up bolting a block off plate on 38 gate flange/crossover pipe and welding a bigger pipe and pt46 v-band on the outside elbow 90 elbow of crossover going up to pass. log.
I even thought of using both tial 38 and pt46 gates at the same time. Lol.

^^^^ I know exactly what you are saying. If I end up welding a pipe to the cross over then I'll just use a block off for the 38. Better yet, cut it off and install the 46 right there.
Post pics of yours please. Did you recirculate your WG dump into the exhaust?
